We originally made reservations to stay at the cabins in Curry Village. However, when we got there, they said Curry Village was still closed at this time, so they gave us a room at Yosemite Lodge at the Falls and kept our room rates the same. It was a nice upgrade. Thank you, Yosemite. We stayed at the Aspen rooms at Yosemite Lodge, which were newly renovated. Very comfortable, warm, clean, with nice hot showers.
View of Yosemite Falls from the parking lot of Yosemite Lodge early Wednesday morning around 7am. You could hear the roar of the waterfall and ice cracking from here.
